Paddling Otaku: Damn Lumbersexuals
http://www.paddlingotaku.com/2014/11/damn-lumbersexuals.html
Friday, November 28, 2014. I didn't realize when I posted the Gearjunkie.com. Article about lumbersexuals how big of a thing it was about to become. I didn't realize that it has been written about in Cosmo, Buzzfeed, and many others. I didn't realize that the term Lumbersexuals was coined by Tom Puzak at GearJunkie - despite what urban dictionary says. When I posted it on Facebook - I commented that I was too busy working in the outdoors, to work at looking like I work in the outdoors! I think if you are...

Paddling Otaku: TESTED goes Camping.
http://www.paddlingotaku.com/2014/12/tested-goes-camping.html
Saturday, December 27, 2014. I have learned many great things from this website. Most recently I upgraded to a sortimo case (alright, it is really bosch, but they make sortimo in the US, and the inserts say sortimo) for most of my GoPro gear. It is sensational. At the seven minute mark, they are both right. You should aim for your pack weight to be 1/4 to 1/3 of your body weight. The third host, Norm says go with Ramen, and I think this is a remarkably bad idea. At 16 minutes Will is talking about the le...

Tony's theory of everything. I've moved, new kayak posts at: www.mynewfoundlandkayakexperience.blogspot.com. Sunday, May 24, 2009. Theory of go west young man. Stan at Cape Spear. We stayed at the Cape for a few minutes, content we had made our first trip to Malcolm's Cape. No cavalry rode back west with us but we did have a following sea which was pretty sweet. Stan making his way down into Freshwater Bay. Stan paddling into Freshwater Bay. The red Signal Hill sandstones form the shoreline here. Theory ...

Tony's theory of everything: Theory of first love

Tony's theory of everything. I've moved, new kayak posts at: www.mynewfoundlandkayakexperience.blogspot.com. Saturday, May 30, 2009. Theory of first love. In my Necky Looksha IV at Great Island (photo by Derrick B.). I've had my Nordkapp for a month now and I'm just reflecting back on my first love - my Necky Looksha IV. Its something like first love or your first car. I'll never forget the first paddle, I was pretty green. I've had some great paddles in the Necky since and learned a lot. Theory of woode...

Tony's theory of everything: Theory of codes
http://tonys-theoryofeverything.blogspot.com/2009/06/theory-of-codes.html
Tony's theory of everything. I've moved, new kayak posts at: www.mynewfoundlandkayakexperience.blogspot.com. Saturday, June 6, 2009. Kayakers to the rescue. Looks like the fisher- man is helping us but looks are deceiving in this case. Stan and myself were amazed that these guys weren't wearing PFDs and didn't have anyway to communicate with land if they had to. Not even a spare set of oars. We were in much smaller boats but much better prepared. Stan in happy salute to being on the water. Sea stack at S...

Paddling Otaku: A tale of three fleece, and a primaloft jacket
http://www.paddlingotaku.com/2013/02/a-tale-of-three-fleece-and-primaloft.html
Saturday, February 2, 2013. A tale of three fleece, and a primaloft jacket. When I am doing overnight trips from my kayak I get into routines. One of my most consistent routine is the last thing I do before getting into my kayak in the morning, and the first thing I do after getting out of my kayak is take of cold, wet paddling gear and put on a warm, dry fleece. Self care is a very important thing. It worked well, but I wanted something that would do better in the wind. I Decided that it was time fo...

Living on the Edge: March 2013
http://ronskayakstuff.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Living on the Edge. It's not like Alaska isn't wilderness - it mostly is. But most Alaskans don't live in the wild. They live on the edge of the wild in towns with schools and cable TV and stores and dentists and roller rinks sometimes. It's just like anyplace else, only with mountains and moose. Tom Bodett. Friday, March 22, 2013. Was around 25F during a walk on the beach the other day. Barefoot tracks to the water! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Homer, Alaska, United States.

Tuesday, January 21, 2014. Needless to say my complaint was hit pretty hard by prople I know in Minnesota. As I sit here the latest one came from Aras, who reminded me "we have good beer here too!
